🔍 Key Concepts

• Ohm's Law relationship between voltage, current, and resistance • How to compute current drawn by a lamp from its power (watts) and voltage (volts) • Effect of internal resistance of a battery on total circuit resistance

💭 Think About

• First, from the lamp’s rating (3 watts, 6 volts), determine how much current the lamp is designed to draw and what its effective resistance is. • Then, combine the lamp’s resistance with the battery’s internal resistance to find the total resistance in the circuit. • Finally, use the battery voltage and total resistance to calculate the actual current flowing and compare to the choices.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you convert power and voltage to current correctly using the formula ( P = VI ). • Confirm you add the internal resistance and lamp resistance (series circuit) before applying Ohm’s Law. • Double-check that the supply voltage you use is the full 6 volts of the battery and not the lamp’s voltage drop alone.
